Jarlath Burns' email revealed | Rory Gallagher threatens legal action | Colm Keys

[@edwardmccarthy3891]

Burns out of line should be sacked

[@johnp_canning]

How is Naas different to Corduff in this regard? Surely Jarlath should have emailed Corduff with his concerns? Fine if Banty or whoever ignores the request but all clubs should be treated equally.

[@PatrickLawlor-xo8rh]

absolute waffle to that point alright

[@colmcoakley3916]

instead of sending emails Burns should have researched the concept of innocent until proven guilty. I hope Gallagher sues the shirt off his back.

[@1choccoman]

Why do you think Gallagher was banned from coaching in ulster or he resigned as derry manager?

[@Theword-ju2vc]

What have you got in common with Gallagher

[@colmcoakley3916]

He is not barred from coaching in Ulster, he has a coaching role with Corduff based in Monaghan currently. He resigned from Derry job just before the 2023 Ulster final when his ex wife went public with her allegations. The NI Public Prosecution Service twice reviewed PSNI investigaton files in Jan and June 2023 and did not pursue the case. The GAA Disputes Resolution Committee also looked in this and cleared him for coaching. He is as entiltled to go for any GAA coaching job club or county as in the eyes of the law he is as innocent as you or I. IMO was Burns did was 100% wrong.

[@10ohagan]

Correct

[@BURRRRPPPPPOOP]

Why would he sue him? He advised Nass that it would not be in their best interests to hire someone with this stink attached, good advice I’d venture, innocent or not I’d rather have a manager who won’t always be the story in every game we play, plenty more managers out there, and cheaper ones too, I’d assume! 😅 I wonder also would you be as charitable if it was your sister involved in the “alleged “ incident….hmmmm?

[@ferguswhealy]

The kernel of the legal issue here rests on the fact of whether the ordinary person in the community now forms the view that Gallagher character has been tarnished, as a result of the President's intervention, then he has been defamed and he has a case.

[@seaniek9175]

I don't think the appointment would be tenable given the likely fall out in the local an national media. Same would apply if there was a similar case in other sports. I can understand Rory's frustration given there was never any court cases on these issues never mind convictions.

[@jameslynch9826]

Is Jarlath papering over the cracks of what happened on the Armagh trip abroad ..😮

[@tomasfm3124]

Innocent till found Guilty . Disappointed in burns..

[@tomgreene1843]

Remember Paddy Jackson (Rugby)...had to go to England!

[@marcgraham4199]

Is the merger of GAA, LGF and Camogie Association relevant to this saga?

[@Theword-ju2vc]

One word describes your opinion Mysogyny, yes that's what really annoys you, not Jarlaith Burns

[@marcgraham4199]

@Theword-ju2vc yes misogyny annoys me. He was probably right to intervene, though really didn't need to

[@turloughmchugh8225]

Burns should resign. Not in his remit

[@hughbyrne8790]

Would he allow him an all star?

[@10ohagan]

Would Jarliath Burns intervene if it was a GAA player looking to join a new club and play for the club?!?

[@Vtwin_Superbikes]

Why would he put that in an email? A bit dopey. Just have a face to face.

[@grahamshaw3802]

That behavior is ok up in corduff

[@FBICPS]

Believe all women (Including Amber Heard & Blake Lively) Shall we include Mrs Gallagher? Only time will tell…

[@patrickmcoscar4776]

What about Jarlath’s famous video of 2011. Is he prepared to put that into the public domain ?

[@martinamchale7472]

?? 2011

[@gerardbenson1844]

Joe Molloy took the side of Shane Hannon when he verbally assaulted Kellie Harrington. Talks out of both sides of his mouth

[@Michael.n17]

Kellie was correct and time has reaffirmed this. She is owed an apology by anyone in media who cast any negative light on her character for giving her opinion.

[@1choccoman]

Asking questions in an interview is not "abuse". The problem was kellie made such an issue of it

[@Theword-ju2vc]

Jarlaith you have the family at heart, majority of GAA famlies behind you

[@joekavanagh7171]

So most people don't support the concept of innocent until proven guilty?

[@paddymccabe7398]

Who leaked the email?
